in decks :
max canine from an incisal view:the distal portion of the facial surface convex in middle third and concave in cervical third and the mesial portion is convexe in middle third and nearly flat in cervical third....
first of all do we see middle and cervical third from incisal view...
second
in kaplan notes:
looking from incisal view the distal half of labial surface is round and mesial half is flattened or even little concave ....this sentence make much more sense to me but it opposes the on in decks ....
any explanation ?????

I am sorry I have not started Dental anat yet but to answer your questions.
Yes, we can surely view middle third of the crown from an incisal view. middle third in this view s'd be understood as middle third of the facial, lingual, mesial or distal sides.
The other question, reg cervical third (may be, s'd be related to where the cingulum is?)

Hey,
I kind of forget now bcz i don't have da in front of me..But On maxically caine, it has a distal buldge if u see from facial view..So, from incisal view, your distal is more convex than mesial side; that is why in kaplan it says that distal is round while mesial is flat..Actually, both r convex, but distal is more conves than mesial side bcz of presence of distal buldge..
hope it will help..
